Messi has plenty of silver medals with Argentina , from the last World Cup and the last two Copa Americas. "I really hope that the abilities that he shows as a leader and as a player will help Argentina improve". Mercado's strike gave Sampaoli his win with Argentina over Brazil in Melbourne , with Brazil missing a couple of chances.

A lot of times teams come in and they want to do something special and end up messing up the game and in important situations, a team that can have most composure I would say will have a better chance of winning the game tomorrow.
